3. System will be automatically power-off when the vehicle is not in use over 30 minutes. You need to
remove the key and insert the key to restart the scooter.
Free-Wheeling:
1. The motors are designed to engage the electromagnetic brakes when the vehicle is not in use or when the
power is OFF. They also have a manual feature that allows them to "free-wheel" so the scooter can be
moved without turning it on. Freewheeling is accomplished by adjusting the free-wheeling levers to the
free-wheeling position.

Electromagnetic Brakes:
Your power scooter comes with Electromagnetic Brakes., i.e. an automatic magnetic disc safety brake that is
also known as Fail-Safe brake. The electro-magnetic Brakes are automatic and work when the power scooter is
ON but in a steady state (i.e. Wigwag is released to the neutral position), even when the scooter is on a slope.
The Electromagnetic Brakes will also be set whenever the power scooter is OFF, but the motor levers are in the
engaged (vertical) position.

Parking brake:

There is an automatic parking brake function included in the electromagnetic brake. The scooter will stop when
the motor is engaged and the power switch is off or when the power switch is on and the wigwag is in the
neutral position. If the scooter is in the free wheel mode (motor is disengaged), you can use the manual parking
brake function by moving the engaging/disengaging lever back into the engaged position by an attendant.
Thermal Protection:
Your power scooter controller is equipped with a safety system called thermal rollback. A built-in circuit
monitors the temperature of the controller and motor. In case of excessive heat of the controller and motor, the
Free- Wheeling Lever/ Maximum required hand-arm force on the
lever is 19 N for engaging and 35 N for disengaging
